'It Ain't Me Babe'

Joan Baez's version of It Ain't Me Babe is probably one of versions of Dylan that is closest to the original recording. The song was first released on the 1964 Dylan album, Another Side of Bob Dylan, and was later a monster hit for The Turtles, but it was Baez's version which brought Dylan to a wide audience in '65.

Much of the fame and fortune that Dylan received in the late sixties was due to Baez's support; she recorded his songs, and brought him on stage with her at concerts, for example.
